I have heard that its not a good idea to install larger rims on a 1997 Boxster due to the cars supports not being strong enough.

Can I install 17 inch Boxster rims on my 1997 replacing my 16 inchers??

some guy wants to trade me staright up ...His 17 inch rims for my 16 inch

Just wondering if its a bad idea and may cause issues for me?
